For both recipes, start off by slicing an eggplant into 1/4 inch rounds. Place in single layer on greased cookie sheet. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with some kosher salt. Broil on each side for 3-4 minutes until nicely browned. ***keep an eye so it doesn’t burn – every oven is different. Alternatively, you can grill – I don’t have access to a dairy grill but would have preferred that option.
